Heaven-Breaking Scheme

He didn't dare risk gambling on who was faster. He could only release Wang Ya's hands, duck down, and dodge the sneak attack from behind.

Once Wang Ya's hands were free, he immediately brought them together, just before Ke Chajing's palms touched his chest, trapping her arms.

A close call!

Just as Wang Ya was feeling fortunate, Ke Chajing changed her palm into a knife, and her slap into a thrust. A True Yang Vermilion Blaze Saber shot out from the tip of her five fingers and entered Wang Ya's body. Instantly, it made his internal organs feel as if they were being burned. With a "whoosh," he spat out a mouthful of boiling blood and staggered back several steps.

"Younger brother!"

Enraged by this, Wang Qing wildly swung his hands, each strike aimed at Hu Jixian points.

Even in a normal fight, Hu Jixian would not be able to withstand it head-on, let alone with Wang Qing in a state of explosive excitement. So he simply lay down on the ground and used the Ground-Lying Fist, kicking Wang Qing's calves repeatedly with both feet.

Hu Jixian retreat while advancing, striking from above and below, using ground techniques to gain the upper hand and turning defeat into victory. He employed kicks, stomps, scissors, twists, entanglements, trips, hooks, sweeps, bindings, and stomps, showcasing the full extent of his legwork skills.

Ground-Lying Fist, also known as Ground-Work Fist, is generally considered by many to be too ugly to perform. It is neither elegant nor powerful, and since the attacker is on the ground, the attack range is limited to the opponent's lower body, it is often criticized as "vulgar martial arts." As a result, few people are willing to learn it, especially women, who are concerned about their image and instinctively feel aversion to this kind of martial art that involves rolling around on the ground.

However, this martial art is indeed very practical, because when you lie on the ground, the area of force you can withstand while standing is reduced, and if your opponent wants to attack you, they either have to kick you or bend down, making it extremely inconvenient for them to move around.

Hu Jixian, being a pragmatist, didn't care about his image. Since his opponent dared to hit the back of his head, he dared to kick his opponent's groin. Every move he made was aimed at the lower body, forcing Wang Qing to be flustered and retreat step by step.

However, given Wang Qing's strength, once he overcomes his initial panic and adapts to the rhythm, he will quickly regain the upper hand.

Ke Chajing was aware of this as well, and was about to rush over to assist Hu Jixian attack when she suddenly felt a strong gust of wind sweep from the side. She quickly retreated and dodged, and when she turned her head, she saw Wang Ya.

The guy's face was extremely pale, and white steam was even billowing from his nostrils and mouth, clearly indicating that he had suffered internal injuries and had been subjected to a burn status effect. However, Ke Chajing's True Yang Vermilion Blaze Saber was only at the beginner level, and its power was far inferior to that of the Iron Refining Hand. This attack was not enough to make Wang Ya lose the fight. In addition, the pill stimulated his Qi and Blood, suppressing the pain of his internal injuries for a short time. He immediately attacked again, his tiger claws moving with the force of the wind, forcing Ke Chajing to the back.

The battle reached a stalemate, seemingly a contest of who could react faster, whether Wang Qing would adapt to Hu Jixian's Ground-Lying Fist first, or whether Ke Chajing would defeat Wang Ya first.

"Laozi don't have time to waste with you, Cloud Dragon Extends Its Claws!"

Time was of the essence. Wang Qing made up his mind. First, he used his internal energy to Retract Yang into the Abdomen, eliminating the biggest weakness in his lower body. He endured Hu Jixian's leg strikes head-on, and his claws reached down like dragons, grabbing at his legs. Once he grabbed them, he immediately exerted force to break them.

Just then, Hu Jixian Secret Voice Transmission, saying, "I'm going to report you to the referee for using banned substances."

When his most fatal secret was discovered, Wang Qing was startled. He froze, his hands hanging in mid-air, his ultimate move interrupted, revealing a huge flaw.

"Now!"

Hu Jixian his arms into the ground, his lower body jolted upwards, and his legs shot out like scissors, like a crocodile emerging from the water. It was a set of "Drunken Arm-Pulling Chain Kicks", a series of violent leg shadows that struck Wang Qing's wrists, kicking him to the sides, and the remaining leg force was all directed at his chest.

Wang Qing quickly shrank back, but was still a beat too slow. He was struck by two powerful kicks, and his body was immediately lifted into the air, unable to move on its own.

Hu Jixian sprang to his feet with a quick somersault, then his footwork became erratic, and he fell toward Wang Qing. He spun around 360 degrees, his right shoulder sank, and his elbow, amplified by the spin, slammed into Wang Qing's chest.

Drunkenly Lifting the Jug with Immense Strength!

Although Wang Qing managed to block the attack with his arms in time, he was in mid-air and had nowhere to use his strength. Hu Jixian's attack was delivered with all his might, and the iron gate was forcibly smashed open. He took a solid elbow strike to the abdomen, feeling as if his intestines had been ruptured. Moreover, the force penetrated into his body, damaging other internal organs as well. When he opened his mouth, he almost vomited up his stomach acid.

Hu Jixian's offensive did not stop. He reached out and grabbed Wang Qing, who was about to fly away, pulling him back. Then he unleashed a series of punches and kicks at close range. Although they seemed to be without any rules, each strike had the effect of dispersing force, hitting the opponent's power points precisely, preventing him from launching a counterattack and leaving him no choice but to take the beating. This move was called "Turning Waist to Offer Wine and Drunkenly Stepping".

When the crackling sounds stopped, Wang Qing had been beaten into a pulp, his body covered in bruises and swelling, countless broken bones, and his body had become noticeably larger, with almost no unscathed areas.

Hu Jixian. This whole routine had taken a toll on his physical strength, but the mental satisfaction completely outweighed the physical exhaustion.

He looked down at Wang Qing and said, "Using skill to counter skill, I specifically learned this Drunken Fist style to counter your Dragon Claw Hand. The reason I didn't report you before the competition was so I could beat you up during the match. Otherwise, if you were disqualified for fouling, I wouldn't have had a chance to use this Drunken Fist style. You hit me once, now I'll hit you a hundred times back, we're even."

Whether Wang Qing felt it was fair or not was none of Hu Jixian. In any case, the pent-up anger that had been building up in his chest for over a year had finally dissipated. He immediately shifted his focus to Wang Ya and staggered towards him.

Wang Qing mumbled a few words, seemingly trying to remind his younger brother to admit defeat, but his face and mouth were swollen from the beating and he couldn't speak at all. So Wang Ya also got to experience the feeling of being hit repeatedly.

Unfortunately, the referee intervened midway, deeming the outcome decided and announcing the result, thus ending the one-sided beating, leaving Hu Jixian a sense of regret.

"Second match, winner: Second Martial Arts Club."

Amidst applause from the audience, Hu Jixian and Ke Chajing returned to their resting positions.

Si Ming greeted him, "Did you enjoy the fight now?"

Ke Chajing laughed and said, "Ha, I do feel much better. It's like I've gotten my revenge, and my mind is clearer. It seems like my cultivation has even improved. Maybe I can go into seclusion and try to break through when I get back."

"Actually, if the other side had come on the offensive, we might not have won so easily."

Not only was Hu Jixian's leg injured, but Ke Chajing also had several bloody scratches on her arm. If Wang Qing hadn't been swayed by Hu Jixian's words, it would have been hard to say who would have won.

At that moment, a commotion suddenly broke out in the audience. Turning around, one could see a doctor approaching the Wang brothers, who were lying on stretchers, and drawing blood from them. The implications of this action were self-evident.

Hu Jixian turned to look at Yu Shuying, Yu Shuying shook her head and said, "It wasn't me, it was that Chairman Chu. 'The cunning rabbit dies, the hunting dog is cooked,' he really squeezed every last bit of value out of his target... When I encounter someone so overconfident, I can't help but want to make him stumble."

She turned to Hao Shuai and said, "You'll be playing in the third match."

"Huh, me?" Hao Shuai was a little surprised himself, not expecting to have a chance to play in the semifinals. "But what if I lose?"

"Perfect, because your job is to lose."

Chapter 468 The Heaven-Breaking Scheme

At the naval base, Xing Daozhuang met with the representative of the Remote Heaven Society again. This time, it was not Nether Lord who came, but a woman wearing a peacock mask.

"Thunder King, the 'Heaven-Breaking Scheme' will officially begin tomorrow. I wonder if the replicas of the Taicu Jade Zither have been prepared?"

"Don't worry, I've already sent people to set up the array in every corner of Linked Mountains City according to the diagram, and I've also made backups. Even if one or two points are damaged, it won't affect the overall situation."

"Thunder King's actions are indeed prudent."

"There's a hint of nervousness in your voice. What, are you thinking of backing down now?" Xing Daozhuang glanced at the other person. "Given your status, it's not too late to back down now. As long as you sincerely repent, those self-proclaimed righteous heroes will forgive you. I know their style very well. Oh, and your clansmen too."

Peacock Woman's heart tightened. She hadn't expected that even wearing a mask, she would still be noticed. As expected of Spirit Transformation cultivator who was in charge of punishments and skilled at interrogating prisoners.
